First day was really bad but two days later I had no issue completting it twice!

"BAAAAAARD!" - 2018



Thank you for sharing. At least now I feel a little bit better about losing my soul grinding the Yokai event... Soemtimes it's good to be reminded that there are more ridiculous things going on.
The main reason why the Party Finder is not working for the harder content and so many groups disband after few wipes is caused by the players who ignore the comments.
Getting to the phase XYZ once does not mean you are ready to join parties to do XYZ.
Parties should spend most of the time doing the phase that is written in the comment not trying to get there.
Cherub - you must be 'blessed' with some real ass-hats on that server.
On Phoenix server which is popular, I left it a couple of days before trying it and no problems. Players just doing the quest quickly and moving on.
What I do see is people picking up the quest that let's them ride that mount, then ignoring the quest and using the mount continually at the Fate. That's the kind of adaptation I like.

There's even a guy right next to the fate that will mount you.


There is a Marina NPC very close to the fate, i missed it a few times, so had taken up the quest of the red ranger that you mount the beast and used that, lol
Know that i know though....
and it is correct you need to be on the mount for the fates, it's a 2 part fate
Regardless of proposed 'fix', I was readily able to accomplish this seasonal event on a high population server. You only need to perform the bomb capture once. I suspect that the area where the bombs live is fairly clear at this point, everyone having rushed to accomplish the event in the first few days. With at least 2 more weeks to do the quests, there's plenty of time and, as I saw last year, absolutely nobody performing the quests toward the end of the Faire.
Note: for best results you should perform each 'ranger task' once, then sit around the required FATEs until you end up with, oh, 27 tokens. That is enough for all three emotes and the rest of the armor set (which is dyeable, folks).
Technically, you can still get credit with stuff like flash and healing.
Healing on the 2nd part especially, you can spam heal the npc's. XD


I tried this event out on Saturday, and am happy to report that on Gilgamesh, one of the most highly-populated servers, I had no problem at all completing the capture-the-bombs quest. No lines, no overcrowding, nothing. It seems that all the trouble was just in the first day or two.
Well, almost no trouble. As DRK, I had to put on Grit just to lower my damage to the point where I wasn't killing the things before I could capture them. There were enough bombs and few enough people though, that no one even gave me the stink-eye for "wasting" bombs in this way.
